I am just confused. Any help would be appreciated when you have time. Thanks!I’m not trying to play down the significance of the MT Diet. I’m still reading and learning my own results so it will take time to get accustomed to looking at all of this information and breaking it down and understanding it.

When looking through the 90-day protocol sheet one of the * at the bottom says, 'BioMatrix Support Adrenal contains 4mg per capsule micronized oral DHEA and Pregnenolone.  DHEA is contraindicated with high estrogen, high testosterone, or high DHEA.' Does this mean that DHEA should not be supplemented in any form if the client has high estrogen, testosterone or DHEA? Or is this just referring to using the BMX support adrenal. Thank you!
